5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful book for new bloggers, August 24, 2007
As the author of a new blog for parents (shameless plug(!): www.parenttalk.typepad.com), I needed all the tips and tricks I could find. This book delivers. Not a lot of theory and padding, which I appreciated. Just great tips, links and reviews of different blogging services. I'd recommend it for bloggers who are just starting out.

3.0 out of 5 stars Book for Beginners -- Only, February 10, 2008
By J. Weiss "PinkRaygun.com" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you don't know what a blog is, but for some reason decide you want to start one, then this would be a great place to start. The first third of the book covers "what is a blog".

The next portion deals with promoting your blog. These may be good for someone just entering the blogging world, but most of us have heard of Technorati and RSS feeds. Even if you haven't, you'd be better off with a book that covered more strategies with more depth.

The book gives an overview of the "business" of blogging, but the details are so sparse and basic that you'll have to pick up another book on the subject anyway.

It does a decent job of weighing the pros and cons of different blog services, but, to me, that alone is not worth the price.

Again, if you are a newbie, this book is a good, quick way to get caught up. If not, save yourself the money and buy a different book.

This book is truly a tool to be used when you desire to learn how to market online. The small history on blogging made me feel comfortable enough to get a blogging space without fear.
